Out of the annual production of six lakh tonnes of urea at SPIC unit, Tamil Nadu received 60% of the total production, and in November alone the State would get 33,000 tonnes, said Collector K. Senthil Raj here on Tuesday.

The Collector visited the SPIC facility here to oversee the movement of fertiliser to different parts of Tamil Nadu and to other southern States by road and rail transport.
